From the coastal town of Hastings, UK, Darper blends melody and texture into moving shades that defines his cinematic style. Having played from London to San Francisco, Berlin to Burning Man, Darper brings the same storytelling sensibility to his Electric Fiction mix series and his immersive DJ sets. His releases span respected labels such as Anjunadeep, Culprit LA, Sound Avenue, Balance Music, and The Soundgarden, and he has featured alongside artists including Brian Eno, Matthew Dear, and Nick Warren. On this Balance Selections, the producer delivers an organic touch that arrests attention. Featuring tracks from Fort Romeau, Rival Consoles, Luca Bachetti and more, this is a colourful journey documenting the deeper corners of progressive house. @darpermusic

There is an undercurrent of psychedelia running through ‘Myntal’, hypnotic and consuming. Low- end frequencies double as notes, merging with the bass to create a dizzying effect. Its main-room identity, however, is confirmed by drums that strut forward with propulsive energy. It all points towards a seductive breakdown, its layering teasing a drop that confirms it: this is designed for floors ready to ignite. @haftmusik

The brooding ‘Driftor’ is designed to nudge any DJ set in the right direction. An off-beat bass drives the engine, allowing you to comfortably sit in the pocket of its inviting narrative. Steely drums and percussion form a cohesive frame, while a bag of tasteful effects, samples, and stabs fill the remaining spaces. Once the breakdown hits, in all its subtlety, you know you’re in the hands of professionals. This is essential prog, designed for any occasion. @haftmusik

Filled with depth, ‘Prism’ shimmers and shakes as synths and stabs perpetually morph. The result is a continuous stream of sonic moments to lose yourself in. Thankfully, the dense bassline and drums bring you back from the edge of hypnosis, filling the space with an elastic energy as buoyant as a trampoline. Then comes the breakdown: bells dissolve into minor-key haze, half beautiful, half surreal: an inviting dream-logic that is hard to deny. @haftmusik
